10 Wrestling Facts We Didn't Know Last Week (Jan 3)

9. Why Chris Jericho Called Guerrero 'Eddie The Giant'

Then, there's the other, less sweet and tender side of 'Latino Heat'.

On the same 'Talk Is Jericho' episode, Y2J remembered meeting Eddie for the very first time. He was introduced to his soon-to-be best mate through Eddie's brother Hector, and he'd come to think highly of him before even meeting the guy. That all changed when Chris stumbled upon a drunk and rambling Eddie in his underwear.

Eddie was staying in the same hotel room as Hector, and the elder Guerrero was keen for Jericho to meet his sibling. When he did, Chris couldn't believe how confrontational he was; Eddie asked who Y2J was, and then asked if he thought his "sh*t didn't stink" when Jericho told him.

The next morning, Eddie personally apologised to Chris for being out of line, and the two became friends after that. From that point on, Jericho nicknamed Guerrero 'Eddie The Giant', noting that the fiery latin star believed he was larger than life when inebriated.

Hilarious.
